Open Administration for Schools 2.40
Open Administration for Schools is a Web-based school administration package. more>>
Open Administration for Schools project is entirely web based and can run from a centrally located division wide server or a single computer in a school. It is designed to support an entire division on one or more central computers but can also work just fine for a single school.
Currently several school divisions use this approach and have 15+ schools on a single central server. This is because it is designed to be lightweight both in server resource requirements and in communication bandwidth.
It is secure. Each school has two or more virtual websites and each is protected with password(s). One site, the admin site, is used by the school office and another, the teacher site, is used by teachers in the classroom.
The teacher site also has password access for entering attendance by teachers and also uses cookies that expire in a short period, further limiting access. Another site, a parent/student site, is controlled by parent/student userids and passwords. A fourth virtual site may be used by school liason officers from outside agencies to give them a slightly different access to school information. (Community Schools)
Main features:
- Demographics - It stores student and family information that can be viewed and printed in a variety of ways.
- Attendance - Attendance can be entered either by secretaries in the school office or by teachers in the classroom. It features the ability to do different numbers of periods per day for elementary grades vs high school and middle years. This will allow elementary classes to have 2 classes per day (AM/PM) with a homeroom teacher while higher grades can have attendance done on a per subject period basis (and be subject based). Attendance reports are integrated with report cards/progress reports. A variety of attendance reports are available. A variety of attendance entry methods are available for use by teachers and/or secretaries to allow it to integrate with normal school practice.
- Discipline - A simple discipline module to track student discipline events and track outcomes, etc. Behaviours may be categorized and statistical reports may be printed. Enrollment changes are also posted into this system.
- Report Card System - a flexible reporting system with per subject objectives (up to 20), integrated attendance reporting, etc. All report cards are printed as PDF reports and may include a school logo. All subjects may have unlimited length text comments, and can have any desired ordering. Attendance reporting will now do days open, days enrolled, days absent, and times late as standard.
- IEP (Special Needs) Site that is integrated at the division level that allows special needs teachers to tailor individual student programs that can be viewed from each schools teacher site. This includes the ability to add student medical history, testing done, student teams (and responsibilities), and objectives chosen from lists of thousands, categorized in a variety of ways. There can be up to 32 objectives per subject and each subject is specific to that particular child. His/her program would consist of a variety of subjects in areas such as fine motor control, etc.
- This system can generate progress reports (for use with the report card system) as well as a comprehensive IEP report containing the yearly plan for the child. This IEP can also viewed from the teacher site, to ensure compliance throughout the year.
- Export/Import Modules - to allow students to easily transfer schools within divisions without re-entry of demographic information. Export of data to other programs. Export of data to Provincial authorities via an automated XML based transfer mechanism.
- Saskatchewan SDS support for direct XML transfers of student demographic, subject and enrollment marks to provincial authorities.
- Online Gradebook to allow teachers to enter marks and assessments onine from school or home. It can group and weight assessment items and post directly into the report card system.
- Parent Viewing scripts to allow parents to view attendance, gradebook(where allowed), and report card marks. This is easily integrated into existing school sites.
- Upcoming: Family functions, Parent-Teacher Interview Scheduling, Wherever schools want to go...
- Further out... Multi-language support (demand for a Spanish version exists currently), Student timetabling.
Enhancements:
- A new Fees System to allow fee charging (predefined or new, with various groups), invoice printing, payments and receipts, and the ability to export summary journal transactions to an external accounting program.
- A new teacher logout to remove session data has been added.
- There is a new 70 page User Documentation PDF and a 40 page Administration Documentation PDF (also available in HTML versions).
Information Currency Web Services 0.2.3
ICWS provides a Web services (SOAP) interface for information currency systems. more>>
Information Currency CVS is a work-alike adaptation of CVS which returns information currency for committed source code.
Allocation of economic resources by financial mechanisms is an essential part of modern economies, and financial innovations have been a powerful force for human progress. Information technology provides the opportunity to create new economic instruments derived from any arbitrary element of information.
Information currency units are economically scarce objects that are issued and maintained by a service that establishes a correspondence between underlying units of information and information currency. Information currency will enable the application of economic mechanisms for information management and valuation.
Information currency units can be traded for other economic instruments, and the trade value of information currency units provides an economic valuation of the underlying information.
Enhancements:
- This release adds the first code for trading information currency, as well as a new Internet draft with an example trade.

MySQL Administrator enables developers and DBAs to easily perform all the command line operations visually including configuring servers, administering users, and dynamically monitoring database health.
Other common administrative tasks such as monitoring replication status, backup and restore, and viewing logs can also be performed through the MySQL Administrator graphical console.
User Administration in Minutes
Administering users, granting privileges and viewing user privilege information has never been easier! Now you can leverage the full power of MySQLs user management and privilege capabilities to fully protect your MySQL server host using an integrated graphical user administration console.
For example, a form-based interface provides a simple method for adding users, assigning passwords and including user profile information. Plus, assigning and revoking global, database, and table/column privileges is as easy as adding and removing privilege items from an available list. Finally, an explorer interface provides a hierarchical view allowing you to easily view user privileges by privilege type.
Single View Dynamic Health Monitoring
Dynamic health monitoring gives you an immediate view into the key indicators of the health of your MySQL environment. Dynamic graphs enable you to easily view percentage of memory usage, connection usage, hit rates, as well as the number of SQL queries on an ongoing basis, as your system runs.
The Disk Health tab gives you an overview of the amount of hard disk space, tablespace, and log files being used. You can also use the visual health monitoring feature to get a hierarchical view into status and server variables such as the number of outstanding connections, number of bytes sent and received by clients, buffer allocations size and more.
Quickly Optimize MySQL
MySQL Administrator now allows you to easily view and setup key parameters so you can quickly optimize the performance of MySQL. Using a graphical forms-based environment, you quickly fine tune general and advanced parameters. For example you can set memory usage parameters and configure server start-up parameters related to the MyISAM and InnoDB table types.
Rapid Disaster Prevention and Recovery
Now you can rapidly create consistent backups and restore data by simply visually selecting the schemas and tables you want to back/restore from your hierarchical data directory. The graphical environment gives you additional visibility into Tabletype, Rows, Data Length, and Update time.
Server Information At-a-Glance
The server information section of MySQL Administrator allows you to quickly view basic information about the server and client. This view gives you immediate visibility into items such as server status, client and server version numbers and IP address, as well as connection information.
View Replication Status
Now you can quickly set up replication to increase the robustness and speed of your MySQL environment. The replication features within MySQL Administrator allow you to easily view the network topology of your replication master and slaves. Plus, the graphical environment provides additional visibility into IP addresses and logfiles.
View Server Logs from a Centralized Administration Environment
Now you can view all the MySQL log files including error logs, binary logs, and InnoDB logs from a single, centralized administration environment so you can diagnose server problems quicker and track database changes.
Service Control
Gain complete control of service creation and overcome the time consuming task of installing and setting up services. Plus, start and stop MySQL servers and view corresponding log messages.
Browse Catalog
Browse your catalog and view corresponding tables with columns, all indices and users with privileges to access selected databases. From here you can monitor and optimize tables.
Cross Platform
MySQL Administrator will initially be available for Microsoft Windows and Linux, and be compatible with MySQL version 4.0 or later.
Email Administration Utility 1.5.2
Email Administration Utility provides an IMAP-based email account management utility. more>>
The Email Administration Utilities package can be used to manage email accounts with a series of PHP-based scripts through a browser.
Addition, Removal, and modification of accounts is possible as long as an IMAP port is available on the mail server.
The Mailadmin project was originally designed to help owners of domains that were hosted by Hub.Org Networking Services. The company wanted users to be able to create, remove or modify email accounts when ever they wanted, giving them a quicker turnaround for Mail Administration Purposes.
As the utility was developed, tested and matured into what it is today, many users requested more features or contributed reports of issues to help improve the utilities stability. Hub.Org has given me permission to release the utility as an Open Source package so that others may also benifit from the simplicity that the Mailadmin utility offers to those who need complete control over email accounts.
With this in mind, I intend to continue development by adding new features as they are requested and fix any issues that may pop up. The more users who use and test the features that the Mailadmin utility offers will help to improve the functionality offered by Mailadmin. I have opened a Sourceforge account to help manage the development and releases of the utility as it matures into what users and developers see the Mailadmin to be.

Q Desktop Services 0.4.4
QDS is a library for Qt developers which provides cross-platform access to additional features of the various desktop APIs. more>>
This is especially useful for applications targeting the Unix desktops, because Qt/X11 is very generic and only provides features it can implement on all sub platforms. All library code is licenced under 2-clause BSD licence.
Service implementations are loaded from plugins which link to the respective desktop libraries. The plugin to use can be specified on the applications commandline, in the QDS configuration file or QDS can try to autodetect the currently running platform.
Enhancements:
- Autodetection to use GNOME plugin in case GNOME_DESKTOP_SESSION_ID is set
- Replaced the primitive example application with a simple but network aware text editor application

Open Project Services 0.2
Open Project Services (OPS) is a project collaboration platform, integrating server components such as e-mail, calendaring. more>>
We are building a project collaboration platform. It consists of a project server that integrates with services needed within a project, e.g. e-mail, calendaring, timesheets, documents, knowledge, etc.
The project server is a Webservices hub based on Java (J2EE). The persistence layer for project information is LDAP. We use OpenLDAP now, but others should also be possible. The e-mail backend makes use of a standard IMAP server. Our reference implementation uses Courier.
We are building extensions/plugins for clients, making them OPS-enabled. We support e.g. Mozilla Thunderbird (XUL) and Squirrelmail (PHP) for e-mail clients. For the calendaring and timesheet components we have a Mozilla Sunbird extension (XUL).
In short: we are building a project collaboration environment on an OSS stack, enriching services with project information, using COTS clients/servers and open standards.
Enhancements:
- This release includes some changes to the underlying LDAP schema to make it possible to disable tasks when they are completed.
- To make use of this new feature, the Web services and the sunbird timesheet client have to be updated.
